 ## Prerequisites
 
 The following must be satisfied prior in order to complete this guide:
 
 1. **Xverse and/or Unisat Wallet(s):** You will need to add to either [Xverse](https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/xverse-wallet/idnnbdplmphpflfnlkomgpfbpcgelopg?hl=en-GB\&authuser=1) and/or [Unisat](https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/unisat-wallet/ppbibelpcjmhbdihakflkdcoccbgbkpo) wallet(s) via Chrome browser extension, to participate in the staking process. (_Must use a desktop, mobile and hardware wallets are not supported at this time_)

+1. **Minimum of 0.01 Bitcoin + Gas Fee**
 
-    * **Why is this necessary:** To ensure a smooth staking experience, you need to have a minimum of **0.01 BTC** available along with the necessary gas fee required for executing transactions on the Bitcoin network. Gas fees cover the cost of processing transactions on the blockchain. Additionally, we recommend having at least **0.05 BTC** if staking for less than **1 month**. This buffer accounts for potential network congestion, where transaction gas prices may exceed the earned staking reward.

 2. **Understanding Staking Address Differences**
 
     * **What's happening:** You may notice that the staking address provided differs from your original Bitcoin address.
-    * **What it means:** The staking address is derived from your wallet's master private key, ensuring your control and security over your assets. Your Bitcoin remains safely stored in the staking address controlled by your private key, unaffected by staking. We’re actively working with wallet partners to support this display of your assets in a timely manner.

     * You can view your staked funds by searching the staking address on a Bitcoin explorer, [Mempool.space](https://mempool.space/) is an option we recommend. We're actively working to make staked assets visible in the wallet.
 
 3. **Considerations for Locking Periods**
 
     * **Important reminder:** Once you lock your Bitcoin for staking, it's inaccessible until the staking period concludes.
     * **Choosing wisely:** We advise selecting your locking period thoughtfully, taking into account your investment objectives and risk tolerance. Starting with shorter locking periods can help you become familiar with the process before committing to longer durations.

Here are the steps involved in this process.
 
 1. **Initiate Staking:** Start by accessing the staking platform using either the [command line interface for technical users](https://github.com/coredao-org/btc-staking-tool)  or the web-based frontend for general users [https://stake.coredao.org](https://stake.coredao.org)
-2. **Stake BTC with Time-Lock:** Stake your Bitcoin by sending a transaction on the Bitcoin network with a time-lock parameter, ensuring that your BTC remains locked until the specified period ends. The minimum staking period is **10 days**.
-3. **Vote for Validators:** Delegate your staked BTC to the chosen validator on the Core blockchain.
-4. **Connect Core Chain’s wallet for rewards:** Verify your Core address in the return field, where you'll receive Core token rewards.
